Genesis Cancer Care WA is part of Genesis Care, which is the largest provider of radiation oncology, cardiology and sleep treatments in Australia. Genesis Care exists to fill the treatment gap for the biggest disease burdens in Australia—cancer and cardiovascular disease—in an environment of substantial unmet demand from an ageing population. With 1100 employees nationwide, we provide essential health care services across 115 sites, and clinics ranging from major capital cities to regional and rural centres.

Cancer and cardiovascular disease are the two largest health burdens in Australia, representing more than a third of recurrent healthcare expenditure. More than one in three Australians will discover they have cancer by the age of 75 and the incidence is increasing across all cancer types. Although Australia has one of the highest survival rates in the world, cancer is the largest contributor to disease and injury in Australia and the second most common cause of death.

About 50% of cancer patients require radiotherapy at least once for the cure or palliation of their cancer, however only one in three receives this essential treatment because of lack of convenient access to treatment facilities and lack of understanding of appropriate treatment options regarding radiotherapy.

Radiotherapy, which has experienced rapid technological advancements in the past couple of decades, can now cure some cancers and also have a great impact on stopping cancer cells reproducing. In many instances combining treatment modalities such as chemotherapy, hormones or surgery provides for the best outcomes.

Modern radiotherapy equipment such as linear accelerators can reduce the time the patient spends on the treatment couch up to 50%. Accuracy is sub-millimetre, improving outcomes and reducing unwanted dose to surrounding organs and healthy tissue.

What is Radiotherapy?

Radiotherapy is a localised form of treatment. Most side effects are directly related to the area being irradiated. The severity and duration of these effects are not only dependant on dose, but also the patient's general health. Read more
